Locals also find fun at the annual Family Fun Restaurant and Craft Show, the biggest event of the year with food, vendors, stage performances, dog shows, fireworks, a parade, and a kids’ zone complete with a bounce house. Enjoy quaint shops and family restaurants like Mark’s Feed store.

Middletown offers plenty of charm, and the area is close to many Louisville hot spots.
